We know that one of the main uses of resistor is to control the flow of current. In a resistor, electrons have a collision with ions which slows down the flow of electricity and lowers the current and also produces heat. If a resistor is said to have high resistance then it means less current… Continue reading Uses of Resistor

We know the core uses of Vernier Calipers is for measuring the distance between two opposite side of a surface. We can measure the internal and external dimensions and even the height of an object with accuracy. It can measure up to one-hundredth of a millimeter. Some applications of vernier calipers are listed below: Science… Continue reading Uses of Vernier Calipers

A lens is a transmissive optical device that disperses or focuses a light ray by means of refraction. Concave means hollowed inward or curving in; so, concave lenses are hollowed inward. A concave lens is also called as a negative lens or a diverging lens. There are numerous uses of the concave lens, like in telescopes,… Continue reading Uses Of Concave Lens

How are Magnets Useful? Magnets have been proving its worth every day with its incredible function by making the most strenuous tasks easier. With the various uses of magnets in daily life, we can do heavy lifting which is not humanly possible to do every day. Magnets play an important role in various devices which… Continue reading Uses of Magnets

In our modern society, extensive use of electricity has enabled various uses of transistors in every electronic circuit. Transistors are used in our day to day lives in many forms which we are aware of as amplifiers and switching apparatus. As amplifiers, they are being used in various oscillators, modulators, detectors and nearly in any… Continue reading Uses Of Transistor

We are aware of diodes as the device with two active electrodes and two terminals allowing current to pass through it only in one direction. One of the core uses of diodes is blocking current flow in one direction and allowing the current to flow in another direction. How do diodes work? Before knowing the… Continue reading Uses Of Diode

A concave mirror also called a converging mirror has its reflecting surface bulging inwards, i.e. away from the incident light. This reflecting surface has many applications in our day to day life. In this session, let us know the various uses of the concave mirror. Applications of Concave Mirror A concave mirror, which is also… Continue reading Uses Of Concave Mirror

A convex mirror is a spherical reflecting surface in which its bulging side faces the light source. There are numerous uses of convex mirror which is also referred to as a fish-eye mirror by automobile enthusiasts and diverging mirror by physicists. The term ‘diverging mirror’ is based on its behaviour of making rays diverge upon… Continue reading Uses Of Convex Mirror
